<\/p>\n

Tomatin\u2019s portfolio has seen increased international distribution across the board, and this prestigious award win further cements its reputation as a globally recognised whisky brand.<\/p>\n

The Travel Retail range, which launched in 2016, comprises of an exclusive 40 Year Old Single Malt, Tomatin 15 Year Old Single Malt, Tomatin\u2019s 12 Year Old Single Malt from their core range in one litre volume, and an exclusive Tomatin 8 Year Old Single Malt.<\/p>\n

Stephen Bremner, Tomatin Sales Director, said: “We are thrilled that our travel retail range of whiskies has been recognised at these prestigious awards; especially with such stiff competition. Since launching the range in 2016, we\u2019ve seen our portfolio grow and are delighted that our whiskies within the range have been recognised and awarded not only Silver and Gold medals, but Double Gold awards too.\u201d<\/p>\n

The judging panel went through four days of blind tastings before going on to judge each entry on its own merit. The \u2018Double Gold\u2019 \u2013 awarded to the very few entries that receive a Gold medal \u2013 makes Tomatin\u2019s 40 Year Old among one of the finest products in the world.<\/p>\n

This was the first time the 40 Year Old has entered this competition since its release in 2016. This exceptional malt is matured in Oloroso Sherry casks, is smooth and a rounded triumph of dark and tropical fruits resulting in a big and fruity finish with just a touch of oak.<\/p>\n

Founded in 2000, each year the San Francisco World Spirit Competition recognises exceptional products in the spirits industry and some of the finest products from around the world.<\/p>\n
